Whodda Thunk Senior Citizens Could Be Rock Stars?

Care to feel your age? Care to guess their age?

"It's Fun for a Boy and a Girl!"

"...iSlinky Challenge 2.0 version will bring Slinky further into the digital age with all new and exciting Slinky game-based challenges, added interactivity and a sizzling new version of the classic Slinky jingle performed by ‘70's pop icon David Cassidy."

The word "sizzling" has me worried. Is it shorthand for dance/hip-hop? Either way, it will be cool to hear David's version on the tube.

Click here for the press release touting the iSlinky application. Call me a fuddy-duddy but wasn't tactile play Slinky's main appeal? Oh well, I'll leave it to someone else to ponder the ramifications of transforming simple toys for the digital age.

Here's an original commercial for the toy.
